4 PA Chapter N, The Lost Patrol CHAPTER DIRECTOR & ASSISTANT DIRECTOR HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!! Hello friends, By the time you read this it will be 2019! Where did 2018 go and before you know it, it will be Well the saying does go out with the old, in with the new. Our new calendar for 19 has a lot of new rides, dinner places and destinations and hope they will be memorable ones too. Esther & I ask you all will be open to the new things coming the chapter s way. One of the biggest things for the chapter this year is in June All Chapters West. Yes, Chapter N will once again be the HOST CHAPTER. Esther and I will be asking for your help to pull things together because that s what our chapter does.

6 PA Chapter N, The Lost Patrol DISTRICT EDUCATORS FROM YOUR PA DISTRICT EDUCATOR Hi Everyone: It s hard to imagine that 2018 is almost gone and 2019 is fast approaching. Christmas is only a couple weeks away and New Years is one week behind. Evelyn and I hope that all of you are prepared for all the activities associated with the holidays and have prepared yourself for the addition of several pounds. As we enter 2019 you should be going on line and checking your individual training status to see what classes you need to take in order to stay current in the levels program. With the arrival of 2019 means another GREAT YEAR of riding, attending GWRRA functions and visiting with our GWRRA friends. The majority of us have already put our bikes/trikes away for a long winters nap, but there may be a few who continue to ride through the winter. Not everyone has the luxury of heated grips, heated seats and heated clothing. 6

7 PA Chapter N, The Lost Patrol DISTRICT EDUCATORS Keep in mind when you are there riding to watch for the following: antiskid, slippery spots on the roads, pot holes and white/yellow lines which Become slippery when wet. Take a break and stop to warm yourself. Keep in mind that cold hands and feet do not react well. If you are out riding and your fingers become numb, put latex gloves over your liners, and then put your regular gloves on over the latex gloves. It s amazing how effective this simple idea can be. The winter months will also provide a great opportunity to have a Training Day. These are always fun to have during the cold winter months and it only takes a couple of hours. Again in 2019, we encourage everyone to get involved in the Rider Education program to improve your riding skills and knowledge so that you and your passenger enjoy the ride and return home safely. Evelyn and I have enjoyed the last year as PA District Educators and would like thank all of you for all your help and support. In addition, we would like to wish you and yours a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Ride Safe and Ride Proud Chuck & Evelyn Stone PA DISTRICT EDUCATORS 7

9 Memories of Jackie My fondest memory of Jackie was at the pig roast at Jackie & Maryann s place. She road us around their property and showed us what a gorgeous place it was. Then she turned the keys of the Kawasaki mule over to others and let them tour and enjoy the place. She had the best grin on her face when she saw how much others were enjoying the hospitality and place. It was a great time! Cindy & Mike One of my favorite memories of Jackie was when she and Maryann gave me a shiny bling hat for my collection. Now I know Jackie is one of the shining stars in Heaven. We will miss you. Ells & Esther To my dear, special friend, Jackie, who I wish that Jake & Carol would have introduced you & Maryann to Chapter N much sooner. Was such a pleasure to sit & listen to your stories about fishing & see the enthusiasm in your face for the love you had for the sport. I could never understand why you liked ice fishing, but I guess when that s a passion, cold doesn t matter. One thing always gave me a chuckle was when we re out eating & you d tell Maryann you d left your wallet in the car.so off to the car Maryann would go. Such a talent you had in the embroidery business you shared with Maryann. You were a Blessing & so loved. Charn Jackie, Good friend; loved the fishing things we shared. Unfortunately, we never got to fish together. Every time I tie or cast a fly, troll a lure or put a nice pan fish back in the water, I will always remember our friendship. Denny No matter, Jackie always had a smile. I will miss her dearly. Paula & Mike A wealth of knowledge, a sunny disposition, very talented, friend to all. Jackie was all of these and more. We ll cherish the wonderful memories. Al & Marcia It was such a joy getting to know and spend time with you. Your positive outlook is something we should all have. God s speed and rest in peace.
